It’s about time there is some action on this tragedy. If nothing else, it will shed light on those who choose to drive on heavy prescription drugs thinking they’re not impaired. Because of a thoughtless decision, three people were horrifically killed. Flip flops are less than sensible choice of footwear to drive in to begin with, but blaming the shoes shows the same lack of common sense and responsiblity as the decision to drive in the first place.

If we’re lucky, this case will be prosecuted by the new incoming DA, Lee Kindlon, who takes office on 1/1/13. We can’t count on Soares to prosecute correctly, especially if you are an Occupy protester.

You really gotta wonder if she would have been indicted if no one said anything. I mean really!!!??? A year later with these heavy charges!?? Why is there even a Sheriff’s Dept? You have enough Law enforcent. What a joke1

40,000 people die every year on US roads, and that number has changed little over many years; it is a step in reducing these numbers that governments are moving away from calling them “accidents” and assigning more responsibility and holding people accountable for negligent actions.
The indications are there that the driver was under the influence of medication and was driving while distracted, according to one news report I heard.

A real tragedy. Everybody’s a victim. Those killed and their families, and the one unfortunate to live in a society obsessed with affixing blame. There are no more accidents…until they happen when you’re behind the wheel. Hypocrites.
